Thanks Jonathon. The Fact Sheet confirms my previous message. The emissions rate for NOx is approximately 0.10 lb/mmBTU and the only monitoring is to monitor fuel usage and a monthly visual inspection for opacity (look to see if there is visible smoke). The PM10 emissions would make Mylan the fourth largest emitter in Mon County, behind Fort Martin, MEA and Consol's Blacksville prep plant. The application may have some interesting stuff. Even though Mylan proposes "Low-NOx boilers", I think better emissions control is achievable, and it sure seems like better monitoring is needed.

I put both the Draft Permit and Evaluation/Fact Sheet for Mylan's proposed changes at http://freesoftwarepc.com/Members/fspc/mylan/ for download. Jill Harris was prompt about sending me the Fact Sheet by email, and will be mailing me a copy of the application for Mylan Pharmaceuticals.
